Hey gang;

Well I thought there would be a problem with these files after reading the
email today.

BUT....not so !!

I have opened the pdf file for issue # 53 in Mozilla, Konqueror, Kpdf,
Acrobat 7 for Linux, and finally good 'ol xpdf 3.01 .

It looks just fb in *all* of them.

So, I would suggest to Barry to just keep using whatever it is you are
doing the conversion with. Seems to be working very fine according to what
I see here on issue no. 53.


Vy 73;
